Does anyone have any advice? I am 3+ hours away from the closest Apple Store and would like to avoid sending it in and being without a phone for 5+ days if possible. Pretty disappointing as I mainly bought this phone for the camera

    I went to the Apple Store last week for the same reason. All they’re going to tell you is they can’t do much and opening the phone will cause even more damage. They ran a couple diagnostic test to check the camera to see if the speck of dust was effecting it and everything came back fine. Yea it’s annoying but don’t try to think about it as much lol.

    When did you purchase your phone and did you purchase it from the Apple Store or elsewhere?

    The reason being, if you are within the 14 day period, you can just get it exchanged.

    You have spent a lot of money. Spending 6 to 7 hours may seem worth it.

    It seems like there is a piece of glass in front of the lens (the case maybe?).

    Are you sure it isn’t between the glass and the lens?
